How does Esomeprazole work to reduce stomach acid and what is its mechanism of action when used to treat conditions like acid reflux, ulcers and esophagitis?
Esomeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor, blocks the stomach’s acid production by binding to and inactivating hydrogen-potassium ATPases on the gastric parietal cells.
